Chicago Has Trout Bums!

In our explorations in Chicago over the weekend, we managed to find the Orvis on Michigan Ave. After some small talk with one of the associates, I came to know a gentleman by the name of David C. Heyman. As it turns out, he’s quite the trout bum…having fished all over the US, and into Scotland for various species. Overall he was a great fisherman who is very knowledgeable about many fisheries across the country (including Steelhead Alley), as well as many local waters in Northern Illinois, and Southern Wisconsin.

Super nice, and I would definitely recommend checking out his blog:

Lots of local news, and updates, along with fish stories, pictures, etc…

I’m sure we’ll have some fresh pics/reports from him coming in the future, but for now we’re happy to just gaze through the archives, and be jealous that we’ve not found this awesome fishery before this point…

Again, another place added to the “To Be Fished” list…
